I hate it when the weather is gorgeous on a weekend, but I have to spend it nearly entirely indoors studying for exams. For lack of better words, POOP. Which is why before I locked myself up in my room, I just had to run some errands in a pretty dress, a DIY ostrich feather fringe dress I recently finished. I threw on a vintage vest, some black tights, and leather boots. The wind swept through the feathers as I walked . . . it was fantastic.

I'm also giving the one I'm wearing here away. Probably a white one and black one will be next and I'm thinking more plumage.

Where did you get the vest? Could we get a close-up of it? You should wear it more often! I'd like to see what else you wear it with (I would wear it with the white shirt in the previous post, but I'm sure you can be a lot more creative than that).
